River is absolutely awesome what a breath of fresh air !!!! She is so kind and sweet first I was greeted with such a big smile and a welcome She was attentive to both our needs as I’m quite a picky eater ahah she is a true credit to this establishment thank you for your service I highly recommend going here especially if river is serving !!!!

Great quality food & drinks. Really tasty! Good portions & great value for money. Nice gentle friendly layed back atmosphere. Polite friendly staff especially Tracy who absolutely made our afternoon special & made us feel so welcome & looked after.

Wonderful Sunday brunch. We are local but I had never been to this excellent cafe. So glad I did, nice decor friendly staff, food and coffee great. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting lovely Hythe.

Amazing food. Great range of tapas dishes. Had a really lovely evening, celebrating hubbies birthday.

An absolutely wonderful café. Really kind and attentive staff and food that was out of this world! The look of the café is so immaculate in its details and super comfy chairs and booths. A must stop to warm yourself up after a blustery stroll along the coastline.

Amazing atmosphere, really attentive and skilled chef food was amazing. Warm, good music, nothing is too much trouble.

Friendy spontaneous welcome, followed by great service, food and liquid refreshment. After a visit to the Graham studio, another must just a few doors away.

Group of six or so visiting on a Sunday afternoon. Service was exceptionally friendly and attentive - we were shown the beautiful garden area at the back where we were seated (a must on a sunny day!). Cocktails are excellent and the food all faultless. Plenty of good veggie options but the Reuben sandwich looked like the one to beat! Would definitely recommend!!

Good food varied lunchtime menu- lovely garden and a lovely chilled lunch/afternoon - great venue would highly recommend

Great lunch! Veggie Bar B Q. Live music ... mellow sounds from Gumboots! Fantastic staff. Great terraced garden. Can't wait to go again. Thoroughly recommend this gem in Hythe.

Great music and food for a Sunday afternoon. Perfect for families, dogs. Friendly staff. Would recommend

Food was lovely and looked really fresh and of high quality ingredients, big portions, lovely location, beautiful garden area, lovely seating and lots of parasols for shade, lovely friendly staff, mentioned to us there would be a wait for food, which we didn't mind as it was a social catch up, only few down sides, old cutlery basket wasn't removed from table, new cutlery wasn't brought to us even when we recieved our food, had to remind the waiter that we hadn't got any/ said he would get some, also had to ask for another drink as wasn't offered another one, Toilets were lovely, in all honesty, I would 100% go back even though a few bad points, lovely place thank you 😊

My second visit to Ivy’s of Hythe where we were given a warm welcomed from Ashley. The food was delicious - I had mushrooms and Stilton on toast which was very tasty and my friend had a vegetarian wrap, follow by a nice cup of tea and coffee. Child and dog friendly it also has a stepped garden which is nice. The toilets are clean and there is a good sized baby changing table. Definitely worth a visit and as we are moving to Hythe soon I look forward to visiting more often.

I take my daughter here about twice a month to indulge in an amazing breakfast and spend some time in their sun soaked garden listening to music. Were currently working out way through the menu and have loved everything we've eaten so far. The staff are super friendly and welcoming and the kitchen always make an effort to say hello on your way through to the garden.

Honestly, you can’t really ask for much more from this place. It’s wholesome. The food is excellent! The staff are super friendly and even the chef came and spoke to us. You can tell when a chef enjoys his job and is passionate about their food and that reflects in the meals. The decor is also so lovely, the gardens outside are the highlight for me but really it’s up to you if you choose to have a more homely feel inside. We were also surprised to find out they have live music, tapas nights, pasta nights and even pizza ovens in the future! We’re not locals to Hythe but we spend a great deal of time here and we always have our go-to favourites. I think we may have just found our new spot!

Lovely hidden gem! Beautiful garden and bar out the back , we went on a bank holiday and they accommodated 9 of us for lunch at last minute . Great food! Only criticism would be that there’s no gluten free bread / rolls . Other...

We have been coming here for 3 years and it is always a must whenever visiting Hythe. Lovely little cafe which has just got better and better. The food is always beautifully presented and delicious. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Particularly impressed when we...

We booked a table for 1.30. We sat in the garden in the rain and although there were tables with umbrellas We were directed to one without!! The huffy waitress eventually got a colleague to get us one. She took an hour to take our...

Came for a wedding party and oh my word the food was amazing! The outdoor bar is so handy and the atmosphere was great! Staff were really attentive and made the night great! Thank you!

My mum recommended this place as she’d been before and loved it…… Her recommendation was spot on! The staff are lovely, the outside area is beautiful and the food was gorgeous. I had the eggs Benedict with RUNNY POACHED EGGS!! It was glorious! Mum and...

The manager, was rude service was appalling, food took ages to arrive was stone cold when it did will not be going here again

Had breakfast here this morning, had to wait for at least 20/30mins and it was not busy. When the food eventually came out it was not piping hot, the sausage we had was stone cold and uncooked in the middle, we decided to wait until...

Great little find while we stayed in hythe. Delicious food. Great service. Gorgeous terrace. Thank you

My daughter was home to visit so we wanted to treat her to breakfast out with the family. We had a fantastic traditional breakfast and great coffee served out in the lovely large garden.

Wouldn’t rate this place. Ordered food, Waited 45 minutes before we got any of it & was expected to pay £8 for a few pieces of chorizo. Had ordered bread as starter which turned up after chorizo. Why does it take 45 minutes to cut...

Friendly service, stylish decor & couldn’t fault the breakfast. We sat out the front & only discovered the beautiful tiered garden later which would be worth another visit!

Just have a lovely evening tasty food drink and wonderful music gumboots reggae duo in the most beautiful tasteful setting thank you staff for looking after us had a great time

such a polite staff team always checking in, service was outstanding quick and easy. Portion sizes were just right!

Good full cooked breakfast, new waitress was very nervous but polite. Tasty food and good coffee. Bit cramped in by the Door though.

Best chicken and bacon Caesar salad I’ve ever eaten! Lovely vibe and friendly staff! Very chilled lunch time vibes. Will definitely visit again!

We visited Ivys today, as we have numerous times before. This was our last visit. We thought about having brunch, but we were told that the food would be at least 45 mins. We didn’t mind, it was a nice day. Whilst choosing we ordered...

My friend and I were looking for somewhere to have some lunch when we stumbled across this place! We asked for outside seating and were taken out the back to this amazing outside/ garden area with its own bar! We were made to feel so...

What a lucky find. My friend and I were looking for somewhere to have breakfast and found Ivy’s. We chose the veggie breakfast and can honestly say it was the best breakfast we’ve both had. Fab coffee too! Service was faultless - thank you fern...

Advised that service has finished , no food in the afternoon. No nuts only crisps. On no carb diet so sent the teen to buy some from Iceland. Lovely garden lovely sun but disappointment overwhelming.

We've been a couple of times now for brunch and lunch and both times enjoyed an excellent choice of food with good service. the terrace out back look really pleasant so will try now the warmer weather is here.

Visited Ivy’s a few weeks ago as needed to go through some documents with my sister. Although the service was slow it was worth the wait. The food was freshly cooked and tasted delicious and the staff friendly. There is also a small garden outside...

Felt privileged to be invited to the opening of their updated garden and bar... So beautiful - very friendly and accommodating staff, gorgeous food ... Pleased I'm local I'll be going again. Xxx

All I ordered for takeaway was a salt beef bagel...I was greeted by lovely staff in a very busy buzzing environment - Lucas took my order ... It has to have been the BEST BAGEL I have ever eaten ... I absolutely loved every single...

Went for lunch and service was so slow nearly turned into a early afternoon meal. 50+ minutes from order to getting the food. When it turned up one meal was luke warm. .it wasn't ultra busy.

I came here for breakfast with a friend yesterday morning and we really enjoyed it. Very friendly and helpful staff, good coffee, delish food I would recommend to anyone and quick service... we will be back.

Has to be the best macaroni cheese I have ever eaten. Home made from scratch topped with crispy bacon absolutely delicious. Lovely friendly staff definitely recommend a trip. My husband had the Ivy breakfast and loved it even without the black pudding!!! Thank you for...

We visited Ivys of Hythe a couple of weeks ago during the lovely sunny weather. We sat outside in the beautiful garden, which has ample space and shade for those wanting to sit out of the sun. The staff were so friendly and attentive and...

My main issue was the coffee. I ordered a flat white with oat and when the young man brought it over he said ‘decaf coffee’. When I said that I didn’t order decaf , he said he didn’t know why he said that as it’s...

Sat down and looked at the menu. Waited while the staff had a chat with their friends in the garden, shouting through the bar hatch. Waited a bit longer (10 mins) and then decided to leave. A member of staff approached us as we left...

I visited Ivy's today for a drink and light something to eat. Sadly the only gluten-free choice was to order something and go without the gluten containing things...an example being having smashed avocado on toast...but without the toast... Very poor indeed! The rear garden terrace...

We found this by accident as it was our first visit for many years. We had parked in Military Road Car park (West end) and this was the first (small green frontage) cafe where we had delicious lattes (one with soya) and croissants (one plain...

We have visited Ivy's many times and before the garden extension it was great. The service also varies massively and is awful on a weekend as they don't have a clue what they are doing. On this particular visit, we waiting 10 mins to be...

Excellent, first visit today , clean and tidy, friendly staff, good food, reasonable prices, will definitely return,

Food fantastic. You need to keep this chef as given the current chef climate I could place him in a week, and he’s all you’ve got currently. The poor guy is cooking and running his own food!!?? Owner needs to look at his target audience....

Visited Ivy's twice whilst staying in Hythe on holiday. We sat in the courtyard at the back with our dog. Very friendly staff who brought water for the dog. We both had lunch on the two occasions which included the quesadillas with black bean and...

The best cheese and tomato toastie Ive had for years. Coffee was good - no bitter aftertaste. Customer service was excellent - every member of staff was friendly and efficient - asking if everything was ok. We ate in the outside area - nice and...

If there was a no star for this establishment I would have definitely given them a big fat zero. We were advised by a female member of staff to take a seat and she would be over shortly. Another couple came in and were told...

Had a nice breakfast here, so booked for dinner the following evening. We were so glad we did. Inventive tapas style menu, food delicious and beautifully presented plus great cocktails. Attentive and friendly service. What’s not to like!

Have been here before for delicious light breakfasts. The newly built garden dining area is now open and a delightful place to eat and drink. Very attentive staff and a tribute to how a restaurant should be run. Looking forward to their themed dining evenings...

Friendly welcome. Lovely outside seating. Helpful, polite and the best BLT I have had in my life. Great prices, will be back.

Visited Hythe with a group of friends to try out Ivy’s Tapas themed night and was pleasantly surprised how delicious it was, excellent food and friendly service and an all round great atmosphere in there that is unique to anything around in the area. All...

Great coffee, tried this lil place for the first time a few days ago (AM Monday 7th Feb) and really liked it, the coffee was spot on and staff were lovely. However today late AM Friday 11th Feb it couldn't have been more different. The...

This cafe was a great find, four different lunches all fabulous- The BLT was so delicious and cooked as requested. Only one coffee ordered but it was excellent. We would all recommend Ivy’s and will definitely return when next in Hythe. The chef was very...

Went into Ivys today to give it a go as we’ve been past several times in recent visits and remarked how nice it looked. It wasn’t clear whether it was counter or table service so I spoke to a person behind the counter who said,...

Hands down the best coffee in Hythe, and I’ve tried them all. Comfy seats, great decor and very friendly staff.

We visited for breakfast, just as they opened and the staff went overboard to ensure we had fresh hot pancakes and a lush bacon sandwich. In some cafes the staff just serve you but in this one they went overboard and actually asked that you...
